So this new 'arp_announce' change suggestion will preempt any need for hidden and make everyone happy? About output_route vs. inet_select_addr(), probably the latter is better.

Route lookup is also more expensive, probably. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
